New Build Provision
Since its formation in 2000, Isle of Arran Homes has built 52 new affordable homes for rent in Shiskine, Kilmory, Brodick, Pirnmill, Whiting Bay and Blackwaterfoot. 48 of these were general needs housing and 4 amenity housing.
The latest developments were a general needs development of 6 houses at Hendry Place in Brodick which were built by John Corbett Construction Ltd, Brodick and let in June 2007 and 4 amenity bungalows built by John Thomson Construction Ltd, Lamlash in Blackwaterfoot. These were let in July 2007.
Isle of Arran Homes/Trust Housing Association Ltd continually strives to provide additional affordable housing on the Isle of Arran.
At this time we have no new build developments under way but we are working towards securing sites for the future. It is hoped that some of these sites will provide housing not just for rent but also for those who may wish to purchase a property through Shared Equity. Shared Equity which is known as Homestake is a new scheme to help people on low incomes who wish to own their own home but cannot afford to pay the full price for a house.
